Louis C.K. To Release Todd Barry Crowd Work Tour Off His Website
We should have also mentioned that while on The Daily Show, Louis C.K. announced that The Todd Barry Crowd Work Tour will be released off a LouisCK.com in March.
January isn’t even over yet and C.K. is poised to be on top of everything again with his movie, Louie coming back, and now with releasing The Todd Barry Crowd Work Tour.
There aren’t really any stops that Jerry Seinfeld can’t seemingly pull for his web series Comedians in Coffee Getting Coffee, but this trailer for season 3 of the coolest hang out sessions with some of Jerry’s funniest friends might be the best yet.
Patton Oswalt gets to ride in a DeLorean, Howard Stern and Jerry almost look like they’re having an episode of Seinfeld, Tina Fey joins Jerry even though she doesn’t drive, Louis C.K. takes Jerry on his boat, and much much more.
Oh yeah, there are drones for some reason as well.
Yeah, you want to watch this right now.

Feral Audio’s latest addition to their really amazing line-up of podcasts is The Todd Barry Podcast. The description for the show is Todd Barry talking to friends and perhaps people he doesn’t know, but we hope that we get to see the inner workings of which trending topics on Twitter.
1) In an ongoing confusion about the upcoming Comedy Awards, what exactly is “breakthrough” about any of the nominees for Breakthrough Performer of the Year? Most of these people have been around comedy for quite some time and are somewhat established, but the only thing that I can figure in regards to being breakthrough is that they have something, a TV show mostly, that’s really popular this year, as opposed to someone just having a whole round of debuts on the late night circuit as a comic whose name is just started to get known around entertainment and comedy circles alike. To be accurate, the award should be called Biggest Jump by a Comedic Performer in IMDB Starmeter This Year.
2) A big change is coming to the Big Trouble in Little Tokyo Open Mic as we’re now only featuring one special guest and this Tuesday, it’s going to be a great one as we’re having Brendon Walsh come down right before he goes on the Spring Value Tour with Neil Hamburger and Todd Barry.

6) I think have come to a point where I can only “nerd out” about comedy because all that I know. Unfortunately, that’s what I do for “work”, so I think I’ve become that guy who just can’t stop talking about work no matter where he is. Details on this development to follow.
